"No, Chen Jiu'er, we've only met twice. You can't just try to extort money from me like this! You can't force things!"
"You'll know if it's sweet or not after one bite." Chen Jiu'er stomped on his foot hard. "Tell me, are you going to marry me or not?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding bodyguards all raised their stun guns and coldly questioned, "Will you marry me or not?"
With this kind of setup, if Chu Xiao were to say "no," they would tear him to pieces.
Chu Xiao was startled and quickly tried to cover it up, saying, "This, this is too hasty, isn't it? Marriage should at least be arranged by parents and matchmakers. At the very least, I should ask my parents' opinion, right?"
Chen Jiu'er frowned.
"Aren't your family members either dead or have left?"
Chu Xiao: "My half-brother is still alive! Here's what I'll do: I'll go find him and ask my brother. If he agrees to our relationship, I'll marry you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the villa's door opened again.
Mu Zhicheng walked in carrying several shoe boxes, smiling: "Chu Xiao, all the shoes you asked me to buy are ready. They're all in the farm warehouse, waiting for the truck..."
Before he could finish speaking, more than a dozen bodyguards simultaneously raised their stun guns.
"Don't move!"
Mu Zhicheng's hand trembled in fright, and the shoebox fell to the ground, spilling out the women's leather boots inside.
Chen Jiu'er looked at the newcomer and asked irritably, "Who are you?"
Mu Zhicheng stared coldly at her, his right hand silently reaching for the stun gun at his lower back.
"And who are you, and what do you want to do to Chu Xiao?"
Chen Jiu'er smiled.
"I am Chu Xiao's fiancée! Who exactly are you?"
fiancée?
Mu Zhicheng was completely numb.
But he quickly withdrew his hand, looked at Chu Xiao, and teased, "Oh ho, Chu Xiao, you've really gotten something out of you. You change brides every day and enter the bridal chamber every night. Before, there was Shen Qingqing and Lin Xiaowei, yesterday it was an ancient princess, and now there's another stunning beauty."
Chu Xiao was already feeling helpless, and when he heard him say that, he immediately said in an annoyed tone, "You're still laughing? I'm being framed! This is Chen Jiu'er, the second young lady of the Chen family."
The Chen family, the big boss behind Mengxingchen?
Mu Zhicheng quickly walked past the bodyguards to Chen Jiu'er, extended his hand and smiled, "We became friends after our fight. I am Mu Zhicheng, Chu Xiao's half-brother."
Chen Jiu'er's eyelids twitched.
"You're Chu Xiao's best brother in the world? Then you've come at the perfect time. Chu Xiao said he'll marry me if you agree! So, tell me, do you agree to my marriage with Chu Xiao?"
"Agreed, absolutely!" Mu Zhicheng's voice rose. "Miss Jiu'er, it's the greatest blessing for Chu Xiao to marry you. I don't want a single penny of the betrothal gifts!"
Chu Xiao exclaimed, "Holy crap!"
"Mu Zhicheng, you bastard, you just sold me out like that?"
Mu Zhicheng chuckled: "Who told you to sell me out first?"
Chu Xiao grimaced, about to continue his verbal sparring, when Chen Jiu'er said impatiently, "Alright, just get the marriage certificate already!"
Chu Xiao was so frightened that his third leg went weak.
Although he likes women, he really didn't want to get married so early.
"Wait a minute! The ancients said that one should settle down before establishing a career. You say I'm currently unemployed, give me a year, wait for me to take back the Chu Group, and then I'll marry you."
Chen Jiu'er's eyes darted around.
"Chu Xiao, don't try to fool me!"
"I'm not kidding you! Think about it carefully. The reason we had such a big misunderstanding is because I spent a lot of money to please your grandfather. Why did I try to please your grandfather? Wasn't it to take back my father's company? Why did I want to take back the company? Wasn't it because I wanted to do something great with a clear conscience..."
The bodyguards around him were completely bewildered by what he said.
